During the summertime we (deZign Studio + be*sign) were contacted by the independent acting company called “teatriOFFesi”. They got in touch with us to design and built a scenery for their brand new theatrical performance, named “sfratti”.

We went to see the practice and we, first of all, tried to understand the mood of the performance, tring to keep the emotions, finding a way to transpose that in the scenery. But, above all, the scenery has to be small to be moved and easy to built.

The final idea was to built just one piece of furniture, warped as it was compressed in the space, and, from this strange shape, to let get out the other pieces of fourniture during the show. This way, the actors should interact with each piece and, all the pieces, could invade the stage during the performance.

be*sign also built the piece of furniture, using poor materials to follow the performance mood.

This performance by “teatriOFFesi” is still going on somewhere in Italy, we hope you’ll see our work and, above all, you’ll appreciate Lorenzo and Veronica acting.
